Odontomas are the most common type of odontogenic tumors and are generally asymptomatic. Frequently they interfere with the eruption of the teeth. This is the case report of a compound composite odontoma in an 11 years old girl, which resulted in failure of eruption of the permanent maxillary right central incisor while the contralateral tooth had erupted. A calcified mass was seen in the radiograph and was provisionally diagnosed as odontoma following which the odontoma was enucleated. Routine follow-up was done for 1½ years and no recurrence was seen.
牙瘤是最常见的牙源性肿瘤类型,通常无症状。它们常常会干扰牙齿的萌出。本文报告一例11岁女孩的复合性混合牙瘤病例,该牙瘤导致上颌右侧恒中切牙萌出失败,而对侧牙齿已萌出。X线片显示有一钙化团块,初步诊断为牙瘤,随后将牙瘤摘除。进行了1年半的常规随访,未见复发。
